Our 2017 Red Stag Casino Review

Red Stag is one of several casinos owned and operated by Deck Media. Other casinos they oversee include Sloto’Cash, Black Diamond and Uptown Aces Casino.

But don’t make the mistake of assuming Red Stag brings nothing unique to the table. Or that Deck Media stamps out casinos and makes all of them the same – because that’s not the case.

Some of Deck Media casinos are similar – they’ll take the same approach to 2-3 of their casinos, but then they’ll change it up and do something different for the next batch.

And that’s the case here with Red Stag. In fact, I’ve reviewed nearly 10 of Deck Media’s casinos so far and have not seen one like Red Stag yet.

Which is why I encourage you to read this review to the end. Red Stag has different banking options, offers and games than the other casinos I’ve reviewed thus far, and I think you’ll want to see what those are.

Banking Options, Fees and Limits

The following are lists of both Red Stag’s deposit and withdrawal options. I’ve also included banking limits, time frames and any other terms you should know.

Deposit Options

Visa / MasterCard / American Express – $25+

Skrill – $20-$1,500 per transaction

Neteller – $20-$1,500 per transaction

Sofort Uberweisung – $5-$5,000 per transaction

PaySafeCard – $1-$1,000 per transaction

Bitcoin – $10-$2,500 per transaction

Withdrawal Options

Check – $150-$2,000 per week / $30 fee / takes up to 5 days

Bank Wire – $150-$2,500 per week / $60 fee / takes up to 10 days

Skrill – $150-$2,000 per week / no fee / takes up to 2 days

Neteller – $150-$2,000 per week / takes up to 2 days

Cash outs take up to 3 days to process, which is on top of the time frames listed above. And, all fees are on top of the fees you might be charged from your bank or e-wallet.

What’s sort of interesting here is they don’t offer bitcoin on cash outs, though they do for deposits. Usually it works both ways.

Note:

Their support says they’re currently working on getting bitcoin available for cash outs.

Their minimum withdrawal amounts are relatively high, too – especially for both e-wallets where $20-$50 is the standard.

Red Stag also has payment plans for people who win $10,000 or more. You’ll receive $2,000 per week until the entire amount is paid. This sucks, although it’s not entirely surprising. What’s so bad about this is if you win a substantial jackpot – say, anything in the 6-figure range – it’ll take at least a year before you’re paid in full.

Customer Support

You can get in touch with Red Stag’s support using one of the following channels:

I emailed support to ask them about using bitcoin and mobile devices at their casino. They responded in under 24 hours, and was courteous and helpful.

Red Stag has more than a dozen different promotions. We’ve included details for all their evergreen offers below, including details about how to clear them and any limits there might be.

Welcome Bonus

The minimum playthrough for this offer is 30x. The playthrough on the free spin bonus is at least 40x.

There are exceptions, though – for example, if you live in a different country, or if you play a different game to clear the offer.

You can see which countries are prohibited from claiming this offer on their bonus terms page. As for games, you cannot play roulette, craps or baccarat to clear this offer. For everything else, you’ll want to use the chart below to see how much the game you play contributes to the rollover:

The max bet you can make while clearing a bonus is $10 per spin/round.

Last thing – free (non-deposit) bonuses have cash out limits of $150. If your winnings exceed that amount and you choose to make a withdrawal, the difference will be deducted from your account.

25% Cash Back

This is an alternative to their welcome bonus. Instead of the $2,500 and 500 free spins, you can get 25% cash back on your first 7 deposits. All you need to do is make your initial deposit and then contact support to let them know you want the cash back. This offer has a 30x rollover.

2Bitcoin Bonus Bureau

You can earn 300% on your first 3 deposits – up to $600 each – when you use bitcoin to fund your account.

After that, you’ll receive additional offers – including a 75% match bonus up to $300, which is available daily, as well as a 100% match bonus up to $1,000 once every week (if you use bitcoin).

Comp Points

Earn points for every bet you make, regardless of the game you choose to play. Every 1,000 points you accumulate can be exchanged for $1 cash back (with a minimum of 2,000 pts / $2 required).

Here’s a chart showing the points you get per $100 spent at each game, their different reward levels, and how much you need to earn to reach and stay at each level.

VIP Club

The points you earn will determine your VIP status, as you can see above. You’ll get different offers almost every day of the week. The only difference is the size of the offer, which is based on your VIP level.

The table above covers most of what’s left of their evergreen offers. But there’s still one more to cover.

Pina Colada Cash Back

This is a 25% cash back offer on your last deposit of the day. You’ll receive a bonus on your losses from that deposit. That bonus has a 30x rollover. However, the bonus is only available to you if:

You have not received a bonus on this deposit.

Your balance is less than a $1.00

Your comp points balance are less than 2,000

You do not have a pending withdrawal.

Minimum deposit to qualify is $25.00.

That wraps up their offers. Between the welcome bonus, bitcoin bonus and VIP program, you’ll have plenty of bonuses to claim, and a reason to always come back to play more.

What Games Can You Play at Red Stag Casino?

Red Stag has more than 150 games from software provider, WGS Technology. While WGS Technology’s games won’t blow you away, what I like about this setup is simply that it’s different. I don’t see their games too often, much less come across a casino with only their games.

The point – chances are that, even if you’ve been playing online for years, that you’ll find something different or unique to play here. And I think that’s pretty cool.

But let’s look at some specific examples of games you can play here. The following are lists of games from each major category, as well as any thoughts I may have about them.

Table Games

You can quickly sort through these using a blackjack or roulette filter.

My only comment here is their overall selection is small. They have 12 games, but half of them are blackjack and roulette. It’d be nice to see either more games overall, or more diversity with the number of games they have now.

That said, it’s neat to see games like Mulligan Poker and 10 High Hold’em. You won’t find those at just any online casino.

Video Poker

They have more than 15 different video poker machines. Your options include:

Aces and Faces

Deuces and Joker

Double Joker

Jacks or Better

Tens or Better

Deuces Wild

Joker Poker

The only difference between these titles and the rest of their selection is whether you can play the single hand, 2-4 hand or Mega Multihand variants (which they have filters for).

Specialty Games

Your options include:

Bingo Bucks

Dazzling Dice

Keno

Poker Dice

Poker Slots

One thing I’m surprised not to see are scratch tickets.

Software Compatibility

So, how do you play Red Stag’s games? You’ll have two options.

You can download their software – which is available for Windows users only.

You can play in their browser (instant play) casino – which is available to Windows, Mac and Linux users.

If you’re not sure which to go with, I often recommend the browser casino. You don’t need to download anything or clog up your PC with a bunch of casino files. It also gives you maximum freedom. All you need is a casino account and internet access, and you’ll be able to gamble online from any computer or mobile device.

Speaking of which, their mobile casino has 60+ games for you to play. However, when I scoped out their casino it was a bit difficult to find. Their desktop casino has a link that takes you to the mobile version of their site. However, I couldn’t find this when I went to their site from my phone. I had to type in m.redstagcasino.eu to get there.

Other than that, I liked what I saw. They have a few filters to help you find the games you’re after faster. And they have a diverse selection of games – you could 3 and 5-reel slots, video poker, table games and tournaments.

Red Stag’s support says their mobile casino is compatible with all devices. I’m skeptical, as most casinos aren’t. But I couldn’t test this to prove them right/wrong, either. So, I’ll just say to not get your hopes up, and to test this out for yourself.

Conclusion

So, should you check Red Stag out? Here are my thoughts…

I’m not a fan of their $150 cash out limit (of money you’ve won with their bonus funds). And, I’m not a huge fan of the $2,000 week payments for people who’ve won a large (jack)pot. Or, how they accept bitcoins for deposits, but are not yet able to cash you out via bitcoin.

Those are my biggest complaints. But the limits are pretty standard for online gaming, and not being able to use bitcoin for cash outs sounds like a temporary thing. Their support says they’re working on it.

And I am a fan of their software. Few casinos use WGS Technology that I know of. Even fewer yet only use them. So, this gives you a unique reason to check them out, even if you’re already a customer at one of Deck Media’s other properties.

On top of that they have a rather large deposit bonus, as well as several bitcoin bonuses, cash back and a VIP program with several additional offers for you to claim.

And, more importantly, I couldn’t find any scams or major complaints. I only found 1 complaint on AskGamblers.com. And even though they’re a newer casino, if they were a scam or ran their casino poorly, you could bet there’d be far more complaints than that.

The bottom line – they look fine to me. Not necessarily better or worse than their other properties, but different. And I think that’s a legit excuse to check them out.

These guys gave me like $25 or $50 to try them out around this time last year. I go on and mess around every once in awhile. always seemed to have had $50-100 in my account. Hit a nice run here recently and went to cash out $650 and they tell me I am not eligible to cash out because I have never deposited there before. Hello, my deposit was the money you gave me. I guess for future players if they give you free money......YOU MUST LOSE IT ALL AND DEPOSIT MONEY BEFORE THEY CONSIDER YOU A REAL CUSTOMER. Not only did they not cash me out they took all of the money away I had in my account and told me to deposit money to take advantage of their current promotion. Nice way to run a business guys.

Ive been plying for more than a year with red stag. I have requested and received one cash out which I ended up getting nasty with them to receive. I have now requested my second cash out and have waited nearly two weeks. My account is still in pending status which means I can't deposit which means I can't play. It's stupid. I don't trust them any more at all. i hope they pay me but I'm wondering. Been given the run around and straight up lied to.
